They are easier to use as they integrate well with the Xorg environment.</div></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Yes I originally was using glxinfo - see my 1st post. Since updating a few packages, about 3 months ago now, I haven't been able to get glxinfo or glxgears to run with 3D acceleration. That's what this post is about :)</div><div><br></div><div>At this point, I'm thinking of changing tack somewhat. I have 3D acceleration working under Wayland - and Enlightenment is actually really smooth during full-screen transitions etc, which is great, but there are some rendering issues with terminology ( completely corrupted window ). I'm trying out other terminals and trying to see if I can figure out what terminology's problem is.</div><div><br></div><div>Dan</div><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><div><br></div><div>Luís<br></div></font></span><span class=""><br><div><br><br><div><br><div><div><div><div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, Nov 2, 2017 at 9:59 PM, Daniel Kasak <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:d.j.kasak.dk@gmail.com" target="_blank">d.j.kasak.dk@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">Hi Luis.
